Book Trailer:
Running thehot water, I washed myhands with mandarin-scented liquid soap. As steam rose, it misted over themirror. I examined the duct work, admiring the aesthetic. This was my kind ofplace, I decided. Urban chic. I patted my hands on a towel and squirted some ofthe chamomile-scented lotion provided over my fingers, rubbing it in gently. Myskin was so dry.
Perhaps Idaydreamed for a moment,
maybe realized I was hungry and thought about where we might go for snacknearby. Anyhow, for whatever reason I lost track of time. It couldn’t have beenfor more than a minute or two. Next thing I knew, someone was hammering on therestroom door.
I walkedover and unlocked thedoor. Kenzie was there along with Boujee. Both wore troubled expressions.
“Sure you’re okay?” asked Kenzie.“You can tell me, she’s gone.”
“I’m fine.”
He shookhis head. “If you sayso.” He seemed reluctant to say more. He paced over to the sink and wet hisfingers, wiping his face. “Let’s go. Wait.” He pointed to the mirror-stone.“What’s this?”
“Yeah, notmuch of a mirror, isit?”
“I meant thewriting.”
At first I thoughtI’d misheardhim. “Did you say ‘writing?’”
He gave me this quirky smile, likehe thought we were playing. “Yeah. ‘Find unicorns.’ Why’d you write that?”
He continued topoint directly atthe stone slab. “And yet.”
Completely baffled, I closed infor a better look. Then I saw it. The words took a few seconds to register ameaning. An inscription in the fine condensation was fading rapidly but still
legible. Traced, very obviously, by finger.
FIND UNICORNS.
My fingertips and nose feltsuddenly cold, as if they’d caught a sharp breeze. I swallowed, grasping for amemory that wasn’t there.
I repeated, “I didn’t writeanything.”
Kenzie’s eyestwinkled. “Then who?Casper the ghost?”
Igrabbed his arm, not gently.“I’m being serious, Kenzie. I did not write those words.”
He flinched, as if I’d flicked hisface. Anger flashed across his face for just a second.
He thinks I’m lying, playing adumb game.

England. She studied Biochemistry at St Catherine’s College Oxford and stuckaround for even more at St Cross College.
